The California Governor has approved AB 2693, extending and modifying employer COVID-19 notification requirements.
In September 2020, as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the California Legislature enacted AB 685 (adding Labor Code section 6409.6), mandating employers notify employees and local and state public health officials of COVID-19 cases in the workplace. The statute was set to expire on January 1, 2023, but the Legislature delayed the sunset provision to January 1, 2024.
